I dug through it and definitely think I could meet the good cause, but I'm still afraid of being denied.

And personal interviews, possible psych eval, etc? Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I already carry at work and home, the only other time I would like to carry is between the two and maybe when I'm out eating. That and roadtrips. That would be a good time that I have always preferred to carry where I am legally allowed to do so.

Thanks for providing approved and denied statements.

Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

I also saw on this thread that Newport Beach PD would issue, is that true? Can someone confirm this and tell me if there is anything different about going through the Newport Beach PD instead of the OCSD?

I can't remember who I spoke with via email. He was polite and professional but made it pretty clear that they have a very limited view of what GC is. Not sure of their ratio of issued/denied. Frankly, even as restrictive as OC Sheriff is, I think you'd have a better chance with them (the sheriff.)

I shot them an email to see if I can get some information. I'm really interested in applying if there is a chance it will be accepted. Thanks for your help.

September 13, 2012 - In response to continuing complaints from Orange County firearms owners and Second Amendment civil rights activists, attorneys for the National Rifle Association and the CRPA Foundation have filed a lawsuit against Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens in U. S. District Court.

Well that was a good start to a Monday morning. Nice coming into work and seeing this first thing. Glad it's not some no name lawyer. This could be great!

so i was just reading the newest pdf on the attorneys website and they moved for a dismissal of the county of orange as a defendant, does this mean they are going after sheriff hutchens outside of the county of orange? I'm not a lawyer and I'm confused..

It looks like they agreed that the County Board of Supervisors didn't have anything to do with the enforcement of Sandra's policies. Sandra is all alone. Luckily, she at least has a "means" to protect herself.

Reply from Congressmen Dana Rohrabacher. Looks like a canned response.

"Thank you for contacting me regarding Second Amendment rights. I appreciate the opportunity to respond to your concerns.

I fully support and defend the right of every law-abiding American to bear arms as detailed in the Second Amendment of the Constitution, and believe fully that this right "shall not be infringed." My commitment to protecting the right of every law-abiding American to responsibly bear arms has earned me an "A" rating from the National Rifle Association. I will continue to support the rights of gun owners who use firearms responsibly, while also working to ensure that those who break the law are punished accordingly. Please be assured I will keep the intent of the Founding Fathers and the Second Amendment in mind should any legislation come to the floor of the House addressing this issue.

Again, thank you for giving me the benefit of your views. Please continue to keep me informed on any federal issues of concern to you."
